The minister was choked by Mu Ze on the spot and couldn't speak. www.biquge.info But I have to admit that in some ways, Mu Muze really did not have a connection.

But since he has already stood here, it shows that his position is different from that of Mu Ze. So he still emphasized bitterly: "Your Majesty, but even if it is a case, you must consider it as appropriate, and it is against the way of benevolent government to execute everyone like this!"

The emperor frowned and looked down, obviously wanting to hear what Mu Ze had to say.

So Mu Ze continued: "This matter was handed over to this king by my father, and this king naturally has the king's way to deal with it. The crime of collaborating with the enemy is a heinous crime, and no matter whether this person has done anything wrong or not, anyone who has such thoughts should be severely punished. ”

Mu Ze saluted the emperor: "Erchen has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and he knows this kind of thing, if he is not punished severely, how serious the consequences will be." As he spoke, he also looked at the adults who came to intercede, and said coldly: "With this forgiveness, there will definitely be a next time, and in the end, how will the father and emperor serve the people? If the ministers of the court and the central government think that as long as they make a small mistake, they can be exonerated, then they are slightly tempted by interests, who knows, will they do something wrong? Therefore, the ministers think that this time they would rather kill by mistake than let go!"

The emperor was also hesitating, but after hearing Mu Ze's words, he didn't hesitate anymore.

The minister before said to Mu Ze: "A good one would rather kill by mistake than let go, is this how His Royal Highness King Ning behaves?"

"I don't need you to teach you how to be an errand boy this king! This king hasn't asked you yet, you have recently reported so many ministers in the court, but under this king's verification, they are basically all unwarranted things! Since you can exonerate these eight ministers, why would you frame others?"

When Mu Ze said this, he was already a little indignant, and pleaded with the emperor: "Father, this incident was extremely bad, and the sons would rather bear all the infamy than have the slightest mistake, but father, you see, there are really people who have taken advantage of this incident to make a big fuss and trap those loyal ministers in an unrighteous place!"

The emperor suddenly sat up straight from the dragon chair and looked at Mu Ze: "What you said is true?"

Mu Ze kept his posture of saluting and did not move: "Regarding these things, the sons will also write excerpts to explain to their father." As for wrongful killing, Erchen will naturally find evidence to see, and if something like these ministers is as heart-wrenching, Erchen will definitely not admit it!"

The emperor was also very angry, looked at the ministers, and scolded fiercely: "You are really presumptuous! This kind of thing, when others encounter it, they are eager to hide far away, you say, what kind of intentions do you wantonly report? Could it be that you are the people who have collaborated with the enemy and treasoned with the country that Lao Jiu has not found out? Or do you want to use the muddy waters to rescue those people who have committed the most heinous crimes?"

Several ministers were immediately frightened, knelt on the ground and begged the emperor for mercy: "The emperor is angry, this matter is really not like this! Even if you give the minister ten dares, the minister will not dare to do such a thing!"

"Then this matter, I have already handed over to King Ning for the presiding trial, you are not the chief judge, and the other is not the inspector, what qualifications do you have to point fingers at King Ning?

A few people didn't expect that they just wanted to take the opportunity to knock down a few opponents, but they kicked the iron plate of King Ning.

If he really let him deal with those eight ministers quickly, they wouldn't be able to make a move, so these people would come to intercede for those eight people.

Now who doesn't know, this kind of collaborator can't be casually involved, otherwise they will be connected, and their whole family will die!

Isn't the emperor angry at this moment, and he clearly told everyone that this matter was what I asked King Ning to do, and whoever questioned King Ning was questioning me!

So these ministers knelt down and begged for mercy, it was more like they were deliberately obstructing Mu Ze's office before, so the emperor directly ordered and punished these ministers: "Those who came to this imperial study today to intercede for those eight people will all be demoted to the first class and suspended for half a year!"

Even if these ministers are unwilling, they don't dare to ask anymore, who knows if they will be executed if the emperor orders them again.

Therefore, they could only prostrate on the ground and thank you: "The minister bows and thanks Your Majesty." ”

The emperor waved his hand impatiently and let them out, and waited until everyone was gone, then he looked at Mu Ze and said with some pity: "It turns out that you have suffered so much recently, and I have really wronged you." ”

Mu Ze immediately saluted and said humbly: "If you go back to your father's words, you can share your father's worries, and your sons don't feel wronged." Even when I first saw these ministers reporting to each other, the ministers were relieved. ”

"Oh?" the emperor was obviously puzzled: "Why are you pleased?"

You must know that if they eat dogs like this, the situation between the DPRK and China will definitely be chaotic. Even in the court these two days, they can always argue.

Mu Ze would have been questioned by them a few days ago, and now it seems that these people should not dare to ask again.

Mu Ze stood up straight and replied with the emperor: "It is said that with people as a mirror, you can see the gains and losses." If the report of the ministers of the DPRK and China is true, after the ministers thoroughly investigate, the punishment that should be punished and the warning that should be given can actually promote the development of the situation in the DPRK and China. But what makes Erchen sad is that the things these people say are all false, so their intentions are worth considering. ”

When Mu Ze said this, he also pulled the corners of his mouth: "But Erchen is also glad that they are telling lies, otherwise what kind of chaos should the court and the central government become?"

No matter what Mu Ze said, the emperor felt quite comfortable when he heard it. looked at Mu Ze's gaze, which also brought a lot of approval.

After Mu Ze finished speaking, the emperor said majestically and lovingly: "You have this heart, which is gratifying, and when you encounter something, you didn't come to me to complain at the first time, but investigated the things they reported one by one. Do your best, and when this matter is settled, I will not only not punish you, but reward you. ”

Mu Ze immediately knelt on the ground and said to the emperor: "Since my father handed over this matter to my son, it means that this is a matter within my son's office, and it is my son's duty to do it, and my father doesn't need to reward my son." ”

The emperor is in a good mood now, but he smiled, and asked Mu Ze's family affairs: "You don't have to be polite, get up." Princess Ning's illness is already well. ”

Mu Ze replied: "Thank you for your father's concern, it's been completely healed." ”

"That's good. The emperor remembered the concubines in the harem again, so he said to Mu Ze: "Since she is well, let her enter the palace, ask Concubine Shu to say goodbye, and don't let your mother worry about it." ”

"The retainers obeyed. ”

Because Mu Ze's methods caught the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee off guard, and he used his strength to let the emperor open his mouth and suppress the arrogance of these officials, now no one dares to come out easily, so he is afraid that Mu Ze will put a hat on himself and collude with foreign enemies.

The emperor even directly ordered that these officials of the DPRK and China must come up with real evidence to report, and if they do those non-existent things, they will be guilty of the same crime as the eight officials who were imprisoned before.

If it has nothing to do with treason and collaboration with the enemy, wait until this matter is resolved, and hand it over to the Criminal Department to take care of, don't bother King Ning.

Therefore, even those who wanted to sabotage, they had no means to do so, and they could only watch as the situation in the DPRK and China stabilized in this way, and the families of the eight officials were all arrested.

Even these officials, when talking to their colleagues, they have to be careful and careful, and during that period of time, everyone greeted each other, and basically did not dare to say anything too excessive, so they were afraid that these people would denounce themselves again.

Originally, in the officialdom, it is difficult to have any real friends, not to mention the real heart-to-heart for the time being, let's just say that those who collude with each other are actually the easiest to confess to each other at a critical moment.

So because of Mu Ze's actions, the court was still clear for a while, which was also what made the emperor extremely satisfied.

When these ministers later recalled, Mu Ze had achieved the most remarkable results at the lowest cost.

First withheld it, and then struck a thunderous blow, how many people in this court have such courage and courage as Mu Ze? That is, no matter what he does, the ministers in this court are basically offended by him, so it seems that Mu Ze's actions in the future may not be smooth.

But some people take a long-term view, if it is from the emperor's point of view, it may not be a good thing for Mu Ze to offend people.

After all, if you don't offend anyone, it is likely to make the emperor feel that he is forming a party for personal gain. Isn't it precisely because Mu Ze disdains to win over any officials that the emperor will rest assured that he will hand over many things to him?

That's all for later. Now, Mu Ze has dealt with this matter, and when he returns home, he still has to face Yuan Jinyu.

Yuan Jinyu was sullen all day, even if she heard Ginkgo talk about the decision made by the emperor in the imperial study, she still couldn't be happy.

Because other officials were demoted, Mu Ze did not add officials to the knighthood. She is still more concerned about the fourth day of the fifth month. I have been thinking all day long, Mu Ze can't really forget this day, right?

After Mu Ze came back, Yuan Jinyu cowardly helped Mu Ze change out of his court clothes, and looked at his hands carefully, sure enough, he didn't bring anything to himself.

She was even more disappointed in her heart, and she was weak to eat.

In the evening, Mu Ze went to deal with official business and asked Yuan Jinyu to go to the study, but Yuan Jinyu didn't go, he was alone in the house, and he was wronged, and he didn't talk to anyone.

Looking at her embroidery, it seems that it is much slower than before.

When Mu Ze came back, he also told Yuan Jinyu about what happened in the court today, originally he thought that after he told it, Yuan Jinyu should at least show a little interest, who knows if she still ignores herself?
